Enantioselective determination of econazole in rat plasma and its application to a pharmacokinetic study.

Econazole is a widely used chiral antifungal drug. In this paper, an enantioselective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for determination of econazole enantiomers in rat plasma for the first time. After addition of the internal standard (IS) clotrimazole, plasma samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction with n-hexane:2-propanol (98.5:1.5, v/v). Baseline separation of the enantiomers was achieved on a Chiralpak® IC column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) using acetonitrile-ammonium acetate buffer (5 mM) (85:15, v/v) as mobile phase…

Tuning the synthesis of polymetallic-doped ZIF derived materials for efficient hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol.

Cu, Co and Zn modified N-doped porous carbons (CuCo/Zn@NPC) are prepared using a polymetallic homogeneous doping and self-templating method as high performance non-noble metal catalysts for the hydrogenation of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FAL). The CuCo/Zn@NPC-600 catalyst after treatment at 600 °C shows a superior catalytic activity with nearly 100% conversion of FF and an almost 100% selectivity of FAL using H2 at 140 °C. Meanwhile in the catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) using 2-propanol as a H-donor, the conversion of FF reaches 95.8% and the selectivity of FAL is 99.1%. The re…

Inhibition of GSK3β by pharmacological modulation of sphingolipid metabolism occurs independently of ganglioside disturbance in a cellular model of Alzheimer's disease.

Accumulating evidence implicates ganglioside and/or related-sphingolipid disturbance in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, it is not known whether these lipidic alterations are connected with other important features of AD, such as deregulated insulin/Akt/GSK3 signaling. In this study, we have treated neuroglioma cells expressing the double Swedish mutation of human amyloid precursor protein (H4APPsw) with several glycosphingolipid (GSL)-modulating agents, and we have analyzed the impact of the aberrant ganglioside composition on the GSK3 activation state. We found that bot

Toxicity in relation to mode of action for the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans: Acute-to-chronic ratios and quantitative structure-activity relationships.

Acute-to-chronic ratios (ACRs) and quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) are of particular interest in chemical risk assessment. Previous studies focusing on the relationship between the size or variation of ACRs to substance classes and QSAR models were often based on data for standard test organisms, such as daphnids and fish. In the present study, acute and chronic toxicity tests were performed with the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans for a total of 11 chemicals covering 3 substance classes (nonpolar narcotics: 1-propanol, ethanol, methanol, 2-butoxyethanol; metals: copper,

Novel coupled structures of FeWO4/TiO2 and FeWO4/TiO2/CdS designed for highly efficient visible-light photocatalysis.

A quadrilateral disk-shaped FeWO4 nanocrystal (NC) with an average size of ∼35 nm was prepared via hydrothermal reaction. The obtained dark brown FeWO4 NC with a bandgap (Eg) of 1.98 eV was then coupled with TiO2 to form FeWO4/TiO2 composites. The valence band (VB) of FeWO4 (+2.8 eV vs NHE) was more positive than that of TiO2 (+2.7 eV); thus this system could be classified as a Type-B heterojunction. Under visible-light irradiation, 5/95 FeWO4/TiO2 (by wt %) exhibited remarkable photocatalytic activity: the amount of CO2 evolved from gaseous 2-propanol (IP) and the decomposition rate of aqueou…
